How do I retrieve bookmarks? All of them seem to be gone
I have tried to go into importing bookmarks, but there is nothing there. I've tried going to the profile location and telling it to restore to a previous date, but that did not work. I tried restarting the computer and now the new 5 bookmarks that I just told it to save are also gone. Yesterday we had all of our bookmarks. I'm assuming there was some automatic update, but would like to have the bookmarks back.

Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
- Use one of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
- Click the Firefox button to open the menu and click on Bookmarks.
- Click the Bookmarks menu and click on Show All Bookmarks.
- At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
- Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
- In the new window that appears, click OK.
- Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
For more information, see the Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer article. For other solutions, see the Recover lost or missing Bookmarks article.

Ed, screen shot captured first.
I initially was not sure even as a Mod whether I get the option to mark a post helpful after I have used the option to choose a solution. In fact I have and used that option. IIRC at one time I think we only got the one shot and could not make additional choices, possibly only one helpful vote, but no problems now. ~J99 )
